Bob Hope's former home
Designed by John Lautner.
The client didn't build it to the design. Put a wood roof on it instead of concrete. The roof caught fire during construction.

THIS is the Hope house. All those lines you see on the roof shouldn't have been there. Ooooops. We still think Lautner was a genius, in spite of this one time the client meddled in design. | ||||
